Prequel to the dog whisperer!

Pet care experience

I used to live by the ocean with my mother, there, we owned a good amount of cats and a few dogs. It was one of my favorite past times as a child. As I grew older and more independent I didn't own many animals, instead I got my fill traveling and house/animal sitting for friends and family. This continued well in to my 20's. Mid-20's I found a thirst for theatre and moved to LA where, for a time, I pet sat for an established mom & pop pet sitting agency in Ventura for extra money. That gig kept my heart full as I was a struggling artist far from home and desperately appreciated the companionship of animals. After while I moved back home and settled down with my now military spouse. for the last five years, between traveling for the military, we've stayed at friends houses willingly to cat, bird, reptile, and dog sit - and we've loved every single minute of it! We decidedly want to open our hearts and home to others in need of kind and loving pet care.

We love Leah! We wouldn’t leave our beautiful Bella with anyone else. Bella doesn’t like too many people, but she runs to Leah because she knows she’s loved by her. You won’t find a pet sitter anywhere better than Leah.

I received pictures of my pup being walked and with a new toy that Leah gifted her each day. When I picked Belle up, she was happy, had clearly eaten, been walked and done her business. 10/10 would recommend!

Leah is the most wonderful pet sitter! Leah's warm and friendly personality works well with our pets; even our shy rescue Shiba Inu warmed up to her in now time! She is reliable and extraordinarily caring!

We love Leah! She is kind, reliable, and takes such good care of pets. We wouldn't think of leaving our babies with anyone else. Leah is an extremely trustworthy person and has a gentle demeanor, especially with animals. You can depend on her as she is conscientious and a very caring individual.

Information Leah L. would like to know about your pet

I am open to pet sitting all breeds so long as they are not aggressive or territorial. We have two well behaved cats. Espresso is our senior kitty with a mild temperament and Sage is our youngest cat who is afraid of other animals but warms up over time. It is preferred that your pet gets along with cats or is tolerant of them.

A typical day

Big Johnson Reservoir is right at our back door with tons of walking trails and open space to play! We live in an established neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks and parks in the immediate surrounding area to play fetch. I'm also always down to go on a hike if the pet owners are open to it or if the pups are used to the terrain!
